The secret of the scimitar has been pa*sed on to many ears.
Whether it was the Martial Arts Alliance, the Black Prison or the No-Shape Sect, there were demigods out in force, because they knew that sending some minions would be no different from sending them to their deaths, and that even other regional powers in Asia wanted a piece of the action, and the underground world, which had been silent for three years, was once again in turmoil.
But all sorts of news was flying around.
No one knows the whereabouts of Tatsuro.
And on this journey to PeaC*ck Mountain, Chen Long had also pried out quite a lot of news, and every time he heard one his heart had to sink a bit more, and because of his broken arm and serious injuries, he had been exposed several times, but it was not more than three hours for any of them, and the group of guys who followed him would disappear, either to go elsewhere or become a corpse.
“Who the hell are you!”
Cinnabar Dragon’s face was grey and defeated.
He knew he had been completely played for a fool.
With the rumours spreading continuously, anyone could now conclude that he was holding Qin Hai’s scimitar, but he didn’t have it at all, and even if he returned to Kunlun, with Han Zendao around, he wouldn’t be able to save himself, and furthermore, he couldn’t act rashly because Youji was still in the hands of the mysterious masked man, and he couldn’t harm Maohu.
For a while, he was a little distraught.
Three years later the town of the Hundred Clans was still buzzing with visitors.
Cinnabar and Mao Hare were already extremely tired. They found a home-stay hotel and stayed there, after Mao Hare scouted around as Cinnabar had instructed her to do, and only after making sure that no one was following her, was she in to go back inside.
As she was helping Cinnabar change his medicine, Mao Hare said, “Brother Cinnabar, what should we do next?”
“What should we do?”
A bitter smile appeared on Chen Long’s face as he said, “At this stage there are at least five Demigods chasing me, we can’t go back to Kunlun, I never thought that ah, I, Chen Long, would also fall to this state, just like Qin Hai three years ago.”
A look of resilience appeared on Dao Hare’s face, “Brother, die together! If you are all gone, I will never live on my own!”
“Shut up!”
Cinnabar Dragon bellowed.
Mao Hare just clenched his lips.
Cinnabar Dragon took a deep breath and said, “Back then, Qin Hai never gave up until he died in battle, and I, Cinnabar Dragon, am one who easily seeks death?”
Mao Hare wiped his tears and said, “Yes, there is no way out of heaven.”
The corners of Chen Long’s mouth lifted slightly, looking at Mao Hare with a few moments of softness in his gaze as he said, “Mao Hare, you leave here.”
“Huh?”
Mao Hare was instantly shocked and hurriedly said, “No! I’m not leaving, what will you do if I leave?”
“Although I have a broken arm, it’s not that easy to kill me.” Cinnabar said confidently, “But your strength is low, I can’t distract myself from taking care of you, and Youji is still alive.”
Mao Hare was instantly excited, “Really?”
Cinnabar Dragon nodded, his face gloomy.
That mysterious masked man was too terrifying, so terrifying that his full force strike was practically no different from an ant in the other party’s eyes, and although he didn’t know if he was a god or not, he could conclude that apart from gods, none of them were his opponent, and he naturally didn’t want Mao Hare to mess with this terrifying existence.
After a moment of contemplation, he said, “In whose hands exactly, I am not sure, but I can conclude that it is not in the hands of the Nine Mysteries, U Hare, promise me to find her.”
“En!”
Mao Hare nodded hastily.
And Cinnabar Dragon said, “Then listen to my words and leave this place immediately.”
“But, but!”
Mao Hare was still a little anxious.
But Cinnabar had already made up his mind, mentioned the trouble he might encounter next and instructed the solution, until late at night, he escorted Mao Hare to leave the town of the Hundred Clans in the night, only not long after stepping out of the town of the Hundred Clans, he felt restless, his heart sank in degrees, and said, “Go.”
Mao Hare wiped his eyes.
And then quickly left the place in the darkness of the night.
And Cinnabar Dragon took a deep breath and returned to the town of the Hundred Clans.
His plan was simple, to find a way to rely on the terrain of PeaC*ck Mountain to skirt the strong enemies coming after him, and then hide in the shadows to track down the truth of the matter, especially the identity of the mysterious masked man.
He had a good idea.
Only, things would always develop in an unforeseen situation.
When a sound of footsteps came, Cinnabar’s face instantly chilled and he opened his eyes, looking ahead warily.
But the comer had no intention of hiding his form.
He pushed open the door of the house straight away.
The bronze mask was still mysterious and unpredictable, and Cinnabar’s heart sank to the bottom, as if he felt the pain start to rise again where the broken arm had been.
In a deep voice, Chen Long said, “Your Excellency has harmed me twice, what exactly is your purpose!”
“Purpose?”
Qin Hai snorted and said, “As I said, this is a game, a very interesting game.”
Tatsuro clenched his left fist.
His face was ironic.
And Qin Hai said, “Don’t rush to make a move, what about this time I’m here to send you a message.”
“Speak!”
Cinnabar Dragon’s heart suddenly felt unsettled.
Qin Hai said indifferently, “Broken Blade has issued an ultimatum to you through us, if you want Mao Hare to live, tomorrow night, at the top of PeaC*ck Mountain, I hope you will answer the battle as promised!”
“b*****d!”
Chen Long bellowed, “She’s innocent!”
He regretted a little that he shouldn’t have let Mao Hare go alone, but the situation was urgent and he couldn’t take care of her anymore, but he never expected that the masked man in front of him wouldn’t give himself any way out.
Qin Hai waved his hand and said, “It’s not for you to decide whether she’s innocent or not, but don’t worry, if you can perform brilliantly tomorrow night, I’ll keep her alive, it’s up to you whether you can let them both live or not.”
Cinnabar gritted his teeth and said, “I hope you can keep your promise!”
“I always do what I say!” Qin Hai said with conviction.
Cinnabar knew he had no room to resist, whether it was Youji or Mao Hare, he had to show enough strength, only after the broken arm, how could he be a match for Broken Blade? Perhaps taking his own life would be the only way to give Youji and Zuoyu a chance of survival.
Qin Hai laughed lightly.
He then took out a porcelain bottle on his body and placed it on a side table, saying, “Of course, in order to ensure that the drama is exciting enough, this elixir is for you, whether you eat it or not is your problem.”
Said.
He waved his sleeve and turned around, only to step out of the door of the house and then he had already disappeared without a trace.
As for Chen Long, he took the small bottle on that table and opened it, a penetrating medicinal fragrance made his spirit shake, knowing that even though this elixir was poisonous, it could still restore his fighting strength in a short time.
There was no hesitation.
He took a mouthful and ate it.
After the potion entered his belly, the powerful medicinal power instantly boiled in his abdomen, and that fatigue was swept away. He took a deep breath and hurriedly sat on his knees to absorb the medicinal power, only to feel his internal qi grow exponentially.
